Purpose
The focus of the DEI Council Education Workgroup is educating and empowering Wake Tech's campus community by establishing action-oriented learning opportunities to build awareness, knowledge and strategies that foster a culture of diversity, equity and inclusion.

- Implementing DEI-focused onboarding with Human Resources.
We also use evidence-based best practices and data-driven strategies to accomplish the following:
- Evaluate, revise and supplement DEI-related professional development at Wake Tech
- Revise the course TALA 105: Equity and the Classroom
Initiatives
- Collaborate with CETL to create and offer DEI 100: Introduction Course
